9. A method of operating a wearable device, the method comprising: reproducing content through a display of the wearable device; obtaining, via a sensor included in the wearable device, first health information of a wearer wearing the wearable device; comparing, by a processor of the wearable device, the obtained first health information of the wearer and reproduction stop request reference information; based on a result of the comparing, controlling the display to output information informing the wearer that stopping reproduction of the content is requestable; receiving, through a user input interface of the wearable device in response to outputting the information, a reproduction stop request for the content; controlling the wearable device to stop the reproduction of the content in response to receiving the reproduction stop request for the content; and in response to stopping the reproduction of the content, providing, via the display, information related to other content capable of protecting health of the wearer.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first health information of the wearer comprises bio information of the wearer related to the reproduction of the content and the reproduction stop request reference information comprises reference information related to the bio information of the wearer.
This invention relates to a method for controlling content reproduction based on a wearer's health information. The method addresses the problem of ensuring safe and appropriate content consumption by monitoring the wearer's physiological state and adjusting playback accordingly. The system collects bio information from the wearer, such as heart rate, stress levels, or other relevant metrics, to determine whether the content being reproduced may negatively impact the wearer's health. If the bio information indicates a potential risk, the system generates a reproduction stop request based on predefined reference information that correlates bio information with safe content consumption thresholds. The reference information includes thresholds or patterns that, when matched by the wearer's bio information, trigger a pause, stop, or adjustment of the content. For example, if the wearer's heart rate exceeds a safe threshold, the system may stop the content to prevent further stress. The method ensures that content reproduction adapts dynamically to the wearer's physiological state, enhancing safety and user experience. The system may also log the bio information and reproduction stop events for further analysis or user feedback. This approach is particularly useful in applications where content consumption must be carefully monitored, such as in medical or fitness environments.
